Pick Your Beat
Thank you to all of those who showed up for the Book Club last Friday. We had a great discussion about books and talked about starring books of exceptional quality.
The theme for Teen Read Week is Books With Beat. Teen Read Week takes place from October 17 - 23. Students can pick their favorite books with beat, put them in a special area in the library, and get a sign saying that section is THEIR section! Anna adopted poetry, and Maggie adopted medicine, but there are more Beat ideas:
music
crime
health
sports
Adopt one of these “beat” areas or come up with your own! Let the library staff know if you are interested in adopting a section for Teen Read Week.
Book Club Meeting
The first book club meeting will be this Friday (Aug 27th) at 7:35 AM. Stop on by and talk about your favorite books!
